Hello,
I'm trying to dynamically assemble a string to be forwarded to QSH for execution, but I'm most likely falling over the multiple apostrophes.
Actual CL program:
PGM
DCL VAR(&MYSTR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(5) VALUE('Hello')
DCL VAR(&QSHDOIT) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(80)
CHGVAR VAR(&QSHDOIT) VALUE('echo'' *BCAT &MYSTR *CAT ''; echo $?')
QSH CMD(&QSHDOIT)
ENDPGM
Expected content of &QSHDOIT:
echo Hello; echo $?
Expected console output of qsh:
Hello
0
Instead, I get an error message stating, that there's no such command echo *BCAT &MYSTR *CAT.
What am I doing wrong here? I remember there was a discussion about a similar topic not too long ago, but I can't find it.
I hope, my mail client doesn't mess with the formatting.
Thanks!
:wq! PoC
